Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

He was accompanied by a Thai girlfriend were taken to Chiang Mai police station for questioning.

Holt is currently being detained as police issue proceedings for legal action against him.

A dipshit up the road was busted for selling yaba, something like 150 pills on him when he was busted. He got 4 years and has to start serving his sentence before the end of the month. This prick comes from a wealthy family, at new years he was in a motorcycle accident while racing that killed his buddy and kept him in the hospital for a month and is so fat he has to sleep in the sitting position. The prison will do him good even if he goes back to dealing when he gets out.

I imagine the kiwi will get at least the same or the full 5and while sentences may not be as long as in the past I don't believe conditions are any better
